NUEVA ECIJA — Seeking to improve transportation and provide daily commuters with faster mobility, the Department of Public Works and Highways – Nueva Ecija 1st District Engineering Office (DEO) has recently completed a road project connecting Barangay Burgos, Lupao, to Barangay Mangandingay, Science City of Munoz, Nueva Ecija.
The 2.96-kilometer road serves as an alternative route for those traveling from Science City of Munoz, Nueva Ecija, to Talugtug, Nueva Ecija.
“The newly constructed road will greatly improve the daily commute of stakeholders in the area as it now provides an alternative route for motorists, especially during holiday traffic,” District Engineer Armando Z. Manabat explained.
Moreover, Project Engineer Marvin A. Gavino stated that the recently built project will also help boost the agricultural industry around the area as it will aid in the speedy delivery of agricultural goods to nearby market centers.
The project was funded with P14.4M under the Department’s Regular Infrastructure Program, with funds sourced from the 2022 General Appropriations Act (GAA). (UnliNews Online)
